This issue, which shows the main approach of cataloguers in providing text related information, limits researchers access to detailed information about images and decorations, thus limiting researches done on the subject. This lack of information proves the need for collecting the existing data entry worksheets for manuscripts and lithographs, as well as adding images and decorations to them. This article studies 246 catalogues of Persian manuscripts and lithographs published between 1926 and 2012 and presents a new data entry worksheet accordingly with emphasis on their images and decorations. Keywords: Data entry worksheet, Persian manuscripts, Persian lithographs, Image, Illumination, catalogue. 1 INTRODUCTION Although cataloguing of Rare Books and Manuscript collections has a long history, most of cataloguers still prefer to base their work on experience and the specifications of existing archives, believing that there can hardly be a standard procedure for the cataloguing of manuscripts and rare books collections. This difficulty is mainly the result of the diversity of manuscripts and rare books, forcing the cataloguer to mention different kinds of information in his own catalogue. Therefore, perhaps creating standard data entry worksheets which will 1
2 enrich the process intentionally or unintentionally is the safest way of gathering comprehensive and complete information about manuscripts. Codicology in Iran is about a century old and during this time, cataloguers of Persian manuscripts and rare books have used multiple approaches and methods which are mostly a combination of traditional conventions of Persian classic catalogues along with the criteria used by European cataloguers. In most of these methods, the cataloguer basically focuses their efforts on introducing the main text of manuscripts. Only in highly valuable manuscripts, the cataloguer according to his own interests and preferences adds additional notes containing information about the appearance of the book (i.e. illumination, illustrations, scripts, etc.). Only a few of the pioneer Iranian codicologists (e.g. Mohamad Taghi Daneshpajouh, Mahdi Bayani, Badri Atabai, and Iraj Afshar) have created data entry worksheets, part of which was designed to include codicological features of the manuscripts. However, cataloguers are still unfamiliar with methods of describing rare books within modern data entry worksheets. For instance, in many catalogues different kinds of information related to paper (material and type) could be found and this chaotic diversity makes the information difficult and sometimes impossible to use. This study focuses on the condition of codicological entries in Persian manuscripts cataloguing background and proposes a new data entry worksheet for cataloguing of Persian manuscript collections. In other words, standardizing and presenting a comprehensive worksheet that can in turn describe all the codicological information about a Persian rare book or Manuscript is the main goal of this research. 2 CODICOLOGY IN THE EXISTING CATALOGS OF PERSIAN MANUSCRIPTS AND LITHOGRAPHED BOOKS In traditional cataloging of Persian manuscripts and lithographed books, text is one of the main elements of a manuscript and in most classic catalogs, the main entry is chosen in a certain way so that it can directly refer to the text. However, during the past few decades, considering the fact that the appearance of manuscripts with same text is somehow different, cataloguers have tried to describe it in catalogues. Therefore, since users consider different factors (date of scribing, place of scribing, value, script type, and illustration) when they encounter multiple manuscripts of the same text, in recent years cataloguers have tried to include more codicological information in the catalogue-records. The first discussions about the cataloging of manuscripts and lithographed books date back to 1963, when the National Library of Iran held meetings with scholars of codicology/bibliography. These meetings resulted in the creation of a two-part data entry worksheet: the first part contains bibliography of the book and the second part describes the codicology. The publication of this worksheet began the process of officiating and standardizing codicology information in catalogs. Looking at the worksheets published in the past few years, one can easily figure out that the contemporary codicologists have used the worksheet created by the national library in 1963 as a template. In the current article, to judge about the quality and quantity of codicological information in catalogues, 246 manuscript and lithograph catalogues published between 1930 to 2011 have been surveyed. In order to get a clear view of the background, the history of contemporary Persian codicology (manuscripts and lithographs) has been divided into three eras: pre-islamic Revolution ( ), first two post-islamic Revolution decades (1979 2
3 2001), and contemporary period ( ). From the 246 catalogues that were surveyed, 173 ones have codicological entries, more than half of which were published in the last period (see Chart 1) Catalogues with codicologi entries (Frequency) Catalogues without codicol entries (Frequency) Chart 1 - Comparative Data about the Frequency of Catalogues with/without Codicological Entries The role of codicology is more significant in the newly published catalogues, but the information regarding the visual characteristics of manuscripts, illustrations and decorations is still insufficient. As a result, users looking for manuscripts with certain visual features are unable to find what they seek. This deficiency calls for the creation of a new worksheet that contains well-organized and categorized visual information. 3 THE PROPOSED WORKSHEET The worksheet designed in the current article is based on the 1963 worksheet of the national library of Iran and its entries are divided to two parts: bibliography and codicology, marked with letters A and B. Part A (Bibliography) follows the data entry worksheet template of the national library (1963), with the addition of publication data area (A.2) to include lithographed books as well. In part B however, 4 main areas General Codicology, Layout, Illumination, Illustration/Drawing have been defined with new descriptive entries so that they can confirm the presence/absence of visual elements, while including features such as material, size, layout, and (illuminative) motifs of visual parts of the book. In addition, separate entries have been considered for the signatures of scribers and artists, so that information related to them is placed near the entries for illuminations, images, and drawings. This way, the user can find the information related to each artist near their work. Since there is no unanimous list of terms to refer to the drawings, visual motifs, and techniques used in visual elements, we tried to avoid using open fields. Therefore, the information of each field is provided in the form of a multiple choice list. The choices are defined according to terms found in general references and encyclopaedias and include elements frequently in manuscripts and lithographed books that the cataloguer will most 3
4 likely encounter in the course of their work. In spite of this, some open fields have been provided to include information that has not been predicted. As a matter of fact, in designing the current data entry worksheet we tried to categorize and organize entries in a logical, and yet distinguishable, way and manage to standardize the terms and titles used to describe visual elements.
